Dated to your race, not week numbers
Your programme counts back from Manchester. Miss a week and Sunday's rebuild absorbs it — the plan bends, the race date doesn't.

Where you can train in Hollinwood.
Hollinwood has plenty of choice, which means you can be picky. The thing to look for is not a Hyrox sticker on the door, it is a sled lane long enough to push on, a spare wall for wall balls, and a rower nobody queues for at 6pm.

What a Hyrox build looks like from Hollinwood.
Where to train in Hollinwood
20 gyms and sports centres sit within a few miles of the centre of Hollinwood. That is enough to choose on what the floor actually holds rather than on which is nearest.
Closest to the centre you have Hollinwood Cricket, Bowls and Football Club, Chapel Road Synthetic Pitch and Team Greaves Youth Zone, the nearest of them about 0.2 km out. Ring before you join and ask two questions: is there floor space to push a sled, and can you throw a ball at a wall. Those answers decide more than any membership tier.
Hollinwood Cricket, Bowls and Football Club and Chapel Road Synthetic Pitch are listed as sports centres rather than gyms. Multi-use sites are usually where the floor space is, which tends to be where the sled and carry work ends up happening.
Where to run around Hollinwood
You are well served for measured running around Hollinwood. 8 parkrun courses sit within reach: Oldham parkrun, Chadderton Hall parkrun and Philips Park parkrun are the closest three, Oldham parkrun being about 2.7 km out. Use one as your fixed benchmark and run it in the same conditions each time, or the number tells you nothing.
They spread from roughly 3 km out to 10 km, so pick one as the benchmark rather than running whichever is convenient — a different course is a different number.
Racing from Hollinwood
Hollinwood hosts a race, which is a bigger advantage than most people use. You can walk the venue, you will train alongside people on the same start list, and you have no travel to plan on the morning.
Having both a race and 8 measured 5 km courses on the doorstep is the combination that makes a season easy to plan: benchmark locally through the build, then race without travelling.
